Look in your start up folder and the All Users start up folder and get rid of anything in there that you don't need at start up. A good example of stuff that doesn't need to start is Adobe products, Photoshop products, printers tools from folks like HP, even Quicktime in most cases doesn't need to be in start up. Double check your virus/maleware stuff and especially the firewalls. I don;t know what the Rain things are, but I bet they really aren't necessary amd may be eating up CPU cyles. I think you'll like malewarebytes (google can find it) You don't have to do the paid one, just the free downlaod scan. As a amtter of fact, the paid one sticks another process on your PC which has been known to interfer with some software, notably Nikon photo software.
